ABSTRACT:
Process for forming tubular microstructures having predetermined shape and dimension from surfactants comprising the steps of selecting a lipid which self-aggregates into a tubular microstructure; selecting a lipid solvating organic solvent in which tubules may form; removing trace water from the selected organic solvent; dissolving the selected lipid in the dried organic solvent; allowing the dissolved lipid to grow into tubular microstructures in the dried organic solvent for a selected period of time and at a temperature below the melting point of the selected lipid.
